Is this a centre rear discharge mower, if so has the mulch plug been left in? if so this will block the outlet chute, most mowers are fairly simple in as much as the blade cuts the grass and the wings on the blade tips create a draught to send the cut grass into the bag, any blockage in the chute will stop the grass being sent into the bag, insufficient engine rpm will also effect bagging, wet grass will tend to block the chute as well.

the blades are the wrong ones for throwing grass clippings
they have to have turned up edge to generate an air flow out of the chute to the bag
talk with the mower shop for the correct blades

grass catchers need special shaped or good blades to throw the cut grass into the bag
check/ replace the blades

Sometimes it is due to the ETHANOL fuel you are using. ETHANOL is attracting moisture and after a while it builds up water in the tank.

Blades cut the grass and blow air like a fan. The clippings should flow along with the air out into the yard or into the bag. That only works if the bag acts like a filter and catches the clippings but lets the air out to be replaced by more air and more clippings until the bag is full of clippings.
The most likely problem is that your bag does not let the air out. Cutting wet grass will coat the inside like green paint. When dry, it's like the underside of your mower.
Check the inside. You might need to scrape and/or flush from the outside in. Can yours be turned inside out"? That would be the best case.
When clean and dry, it should work.
Didn't mention the easiest fix: to take out the hand-ful of clipping blocking the path to the bad: since you already checked that.

Hello You can use straight 30 w oil most engine manufactures agree for summer equipment now for winter where it gets cold like in a snow blower the request you to use 5-W30. As far as your grass collector check your blades #1 to see if they are the correct blades for that mower. #2 yes the engine will overheat as the clumped of grass will slow down the blades causing more load on the engine.This is not a uncommon problem wet or damp grass will clump up even if you do not have a grass collector,it will stick under the deck again causing problems.Hopefully this helps.
Thanks Ben

HMM .. if the grass is not going into the collector, I would look under the deck and see if there is something blocking the chute to the bag.

Please vote !!

Assuming that you have the correct grass catcher..... Install the discharge deflector at the deck discharge. This is the smaller piece that bends 90 degrees. It will slide into clips on the deck when you have the deck's plastic deflector raised up. Next, install the bagging assembly. It's pretty straightforward. Lastly, install the plastic chute (tube). Push it in the grass catcher (bagger) opening, and then pivot it over the deflector and down onto it to seat it. Connect the straps.

Hi Janet,
its the warning button on the grass collector. If the button is not pressed in fully, the machine thinks that the grass collector is off, and therefore stops the engine. I had the same problem. If you take the grass collector off, you will see the button on the top left side of the back of the mower. It is covered by a strip of black plastic that slots over it.

To fix the problem my first solution was to tape a washer onto the plastic strip, thereby ensuring that the button is pressed fully in when the grass collector is on. When I got tired of the washer continually falling out, I used a screw to jam the button in. You should be aware though, that with the second method you will be able to engage the cutters with the grass box removed. Potentially a small child (with long arms) could put his/her arm down the shute and chop fingers off etc. I have no kids, and thereby feel safe.
